OPINION: Ready, Set, Sue! Covid Litigation Conference Unites Lawyers, Doctors in Fight for Liberty
By: Robert M. Owens, J.D.
STATE WIDE — “We are in the battle of our lives” proclaimed Dr. Robert Malone at the first of its kind Covid Litigation conference held on a rainy late March weekend in Atlanta, Georgia. Sponsored by technology entrepreneur come Covid warrior Steve Kirsch and his organization Vaccine Safety Research Foundation and Mendenhall Law Group, an Akron, Ohio based firm experienced in a variety of Covid related litigation, and supported by Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s group Children’s Health Defense Fund. The purpose of the conference was to bring hundreds of lawyers together from across the country and teach them how to sue the pants off Joe Biden, Pfizer, and all the other treacherous criminals that perpetrated and continue to perpetrate a multiplicity of frauds and heinous crimes associated with Covid.
The two-day conference featured presentations from dozens of lawyers that have successfully saved lives, jobs and reputations. The conference also featured many doctors that put their reputations on the line to provide expert advice and testimony. The assemblage also heard from FDA whistleblower Dr. David Gortler and Pfizer whistleblower Brook Jackson. Materials were provided to these lawyers in the form of motions, briefs, decisions, medical affidavits and much more to save lawyers time and help increase the pace in which Covid lawsuits gets filed.
Conspiracy Minded Lawyers & Doctors
Story after story of overt miscarriages of justice, callous indifference to human life, rejection of obvious facts and overt cowardice of people in positions of authority permeated virtually every discussion at every table. “I am so ashamed of my profession” said Dr. Pierre Kory, a once world renowned expert in Critical Care medicine who saw colleague after colleague shrink into pusillanimity. Dr. Kory racked up 11 complaints against his medical license in rapid succession and was ostracized by people that he had once considered close friends. Attorney James Mermigis shared frustrating stories of how judges would constantly delay rulings to give the government more and more time and then refuse to issue a ruling. Attorney Mark Meusser documented how California State Courts are so hopelessly corrupt that he does not even bother to file certain cases in State courts because all it will do is set bad precedent.
The product of all that bad news is the clarity that we are not dealing with good-minded people that are making some unfortunate mistakes. What we have is enemy action. What we have is a realization that American lawyers and doctors are, with sadly few exceptions, no different than the German lawyers and doctors that scraped inches of ash from human remains off their cars each morning and did nothing to stop the holocaust under NAZI totalitarianism. “Hospitals are not run by doctors; they are run by evil administrators.” Said Dr. Paul Marik, another world-renowned physician ostracized by his close friends and driven into retirement from his tenured faculty position at Eastern Virginia Medical School. Attorney Warner Mendenhall pointed out that corporate executive officers at the major fortune 500 companies were incentivized with millions of dollars of bonus payments if their employee roster reached 90% mRNA jab compliance. Dr. Merik pointed out that hospital systems that kill people with remdesivir get $500,000 per corpse. The body fees are still substantial for killing people other ways, but the big money is for death by remdesivir and hospital administrators have a rapacious appetite for bodies; that’s why there was so much push back against ivermectin and insistence that every death is labeled as a Covid death.
There was no debate as to the source of this evil. “This is a spiritual battle” demanded Law Professor and Constitutional Lawyer Deana Pollard Sacks. The realization that Covid is but a symptom of a larger attack on Americanism, the Constitution and middle-class America in general was ubiquitous here. The goal of the oligarchical global elite is not money; They have that. Their goal is raw, unchecked global power. Their names are Klaus Schwab, Larry Fink, and Bill Gates among others. They assemble at such organizations as the United Nations, World Economic Forum, Trilateral Commission and Council on Foreign Relations, and these organizations are the genesis points of the evil that has come to America under the name of Covid. “Five years ago if you said I would agree with the John Birch Society, I would have said you were nuts. But the Birchers have been right all along” said Minnesota trial lawyer Joseph McCartin. Covid has taken a terrible toll, but a certain byproduct of that sacrifice is that thousands of lawyers and doctors all over America are now fully aware that a global conspiracy to destroy the sovereignty of the United States, completely scrap any vestige of our Constitutional heritage of liberty and enslave the American people in a technocratic, fascist hell is very real and quite advanced in its progress to goal.
50 Ways to Sue Joe Biden
“Our Constitution is the finest system of Government ever devised by Man and we cannot give up on it” stated New York Civil Rights lawyer Bobbie Anne Flower Cox as she argued in favor of using the courts to impede the progress of the globalists and put meaning to the Constitution. “If we don’t act, its like we are saying it [the Constitution] doesn’t matter anymore” she added.
Panel after panel delved into the nuts and bolts of all the various ways to sue every level of government, sue every public or private person, business, association, entity or partnership of any description whatsoever involved in perpetrating Covid fraud and harm. “We dug up the 1859 California Common Carrier Law and sued Google” stated Meuser, who was, by 30 minutes, the first lawyer in the nation to file a Covid related lawsuit as he encouraged his fellow trial lawyers to be aggressive and think outside of the box. Like an homage to the Paul Simon song “50 Ways to Leave Your Lover”, this conference included a play-by-play account of every type of lawsuit either filed or conceptualized to be filed on the Covid issue. More importantly for legal practitioners, the briefs, legal research and complaints for covid litigation are already prepared and ready for lawyers to utilize in their communities to protect their neighbors and fellow citizens.
This writer was a trial lawyer for nearly two decades with multiple victories on Constitutional issues in the Ohio Supreme Court and was generally aware of the existence of an individual citizens ability to sue on behalf of the United States Government if they were aware of a fraud being perpetrated upon the government. I thought it was just a relic of the past. I had had no appreciation that it was a two billion dollar a year industry!
United States Code §§ 3729 – 3733 was a federal statute originally enacted in 1863 in response to a defense contractors’ fraud during the war between the states. Known as “Lincoln’s law”, the statute provided that any person who knowingly submitted false claims to the government was liable for double the government’s damages plus a penalty of $2,000 for each false claim. The law includes a ‘qui tam’ provision that permits people who are not affiliated with the government, called “relators” under the fed law, to file actions on behalf of the government aka – “whistleblowing” especially when the relator is employed by the organization accused in the suit. Persons filing under the Act stand to receive a portion varying 15-30 percent, depending on certain factors of any recovered damages. Revised and enhanced in 1986, the law is still on the books today.
“The lawyers at Pfizer are well aware of qui tam cases” quipped Oakland, California litigation attorney and qui tam veteran Jeremy Friedman as he documented the millions of dollars that Pfizer has paid out for fraudulent dealings on other medical products unrelated to Covid. “These are complex cases that can be easily ruined” he added and recommended that anyone with solid documentation of fraudulent activity should first talk to a trusted local lawyer, if at all possible, and then contact the Mendenhall Law Group to be connected to a specialist. “I am a solo practitioner and I do this because it’s a mission for me, but I can’t answer 99 calls, don’t call me,” responded Friedman to inquiries for referral advice.
Cold sobriety was in effect as the lawyers discussed major legal problems like standing, mootness, and just plain bad law. In surgeon like fashion, lawyers discussed ways around the PREP Act, an executive edict passed in March 2020 providing immunity from liability to jab manufacturers. Ironically, the PREP Act is the only thing associated with the mRNA jab that actually provided some level of “immunity”.
The danger of bad legal precedent on the Covid issue today can lead to catastrophic consequences. For example, in 1905 the United States Supreme court issued an opinion in Jacobson v. Massachusetts, a case in which the court held that a mandatory vaccine program was constitutionally permissible. That case was relied upon in 1927, when the Supreme Court issued Buck v. Bell, a case in which the Court ruled that it was constitutionally permissible for the government to forcibly sterilize certain people that they deemed undesirable. This exact same logic stream then led to the 1944 case Korematsu v. United States, in which it was deemed constitutionally permissible to arbitrarily round up American citizens and put them into prisoner concentration camps. “This was a trilogy of infamy” pointed out Attorney Robert Barnes, one of the lead lawyers for Pfizer whistleblower Brook Jackson. There was universal acclimation from the lawyers assembled that they would be the warriors that would fight back against the obvious parallels to a sad chapter in American jurisprudence.
“We are looking to expand this conference and have more of them all over the country” said lead conference sponsor Warner Mendenhall, Esq. while basking in the success of a just then completed conference. “It’s very early, but we are working on a nationwide non-recourse loan system to help fund more Covid litigation,” he added while discussing the ways that this effort can be rapidly scaled up for maximum damage to the international globalist elite.
Small & Solo Firm Movement
“This is a small firm movement” said Attorney Jeff Childers. To emphasize the point in a manner akin to polling a potential jury pool during voir dire, he asked the audience to put up hands for lawyers in firms of 100 or more lawyers. Zero hands. Next, hands up for firms of 50 or more lawyers. Zero hands. Next, hands up for 20 or more lawyers. One hand. Next, solo practitioners or firms of five or less lawyers. Virtually every hand in the room went up. Large law firms that have major resources to invest in the fight are AWOL.
A stunning similarity was quickly recognized in the early moments of the first day of the conference. Virtually all of the lawyers present had never filed a Constitutional case before, had never been anti-vax before. Had never sued the government in any capacity before. Had no idea how to even get service of process on someone like Joe Biden. They had no idea what they were getting themselves into, they just knew it was wrong and every fiber in their being was telling them to stand up and fight. It should come as no surprise that the sprit of the Lord was ever present over the two-day conference as many of the presenters prayed. Many of the presenters quoted scripture as the highest authority. And there was specific prayer for intercession for those injured and killed by Covid fraud.
Money & Funding Litigation
Mary Holland, President, and General Counsel of Children’s Health Defense Fund has been a vaccine injury litigation attorney for more than 20 years. Ms. Holland detailed the hundreds of thousands of dollars that have been already paid out in legal fees on Covid cases and detailed the manner and methods in which Covid litigation is on its way to yielding hundreds of millions of dollars in legal fee awards in the years to come. In cases like civil rights violations or Section 1983 deprivation of rights cases, there are specific statutory provisions for lawyers to recover attorney fees and costs.
Setting hope for the future aside for a return to present day reality, the fact remains that in comparison with the typical outlay of fees paid by government and private businesses on civil rights claims in non-Covid cases, the amount of fees recovered in Covid cases is, to date…well, let’s go with “paltry” to be kind. If you presented this business plan to the “Shark Tank” investors, they would accuse you of wasting your time trying to make “Tens of dollars”. Far more so than mere pecuniary interests, the motivation for the lawyers at this conference was doing what is right for God, for the Constitution and for the Community. Adopting a “George Mueller” inspired litigation funding strategy is currently standard operating procedure.
The panelists generally recommended that lawyers get a $5,000 to $10,000 retainer from any potential plaintiff for the purpose of covering expenses and evaluating the case carefully. There are cases that may seem great at first but have fatal problems as you get into them. There are cases that seem like total dogs at first but are actually diamonds in the ruff. It was highly recommended to work with other solo practitioners and small firms on collaborative projects and seek out the advice of experts and specialists. Many of the veteran, successful lawyers present pledged to serve as mentors and guides for lawyers that sought to get into the Covid litigation arena. Ultimately, most Covid litigation funding is crowd sourced at the moment, “We raised $5,000 for a case on Facebook!” yelled out one unidentified lawyer during one of the Q&A sessions.
Most Cases Rejected
“I reject 99% of cases I evaluate” said veteran vaccine injury lawyer Kyle Moore of Sarasota, Florida. The issue is not one of callousness or indifference, rather it is a function of the extreme expense and time necessary to properly bring a case. “Federal complaints have to be 30 to 60 pages long and be ultra detailed and supported with expert documentation” noted Meuser. The result is that cases are massive financial undertakings and the case has to be as “clean” as possible as lawyers have to assert claims like a hall of fame quarterback threading the needle for touchdown if they want to score against a robust Covid defense. “It is critical that we advance the best cases first” warned Meuser who pointed out that successful cases needed to consider forum and judge assignment (especially the judge’s political connections) among other too-sad-to-admit realities of fighting for freedom in this space.
Regardless if we are talking about an employment case or an mRNA injury, potential plaintiffs can substantially help attorneys sift through cases to find viable claims by carefully documenting who did what, who said what an what happened in as many ways as possible. Text messages, e-mails and such can be critical. Photographs. Audio recording, video recording. Assume that medical records will be manipulated by the hospital and fight to include key information in the record in the moment. Make sure to organize and preserve evidence. If you go into a lawyer’s office and dump a big box of crud on that lawyer’s desk and hope they will stop what they are doing and invest their time and money into that mess, you would not be operating with realistic expectations.
What We Face is Monstrous
J. Edgar Hoover noted in the August 1956 issue of Elks magazine that “The individual is handicapped by coming face-to-face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists. The American mind simply has not come to a realization of the evil which has been introduced into our midst. It rejects even the assumption that human creatures could espouse a philosophy which must ultimately destroy all that is good and decent.” The psychological concept at play in this statement is known as normalcy bias. Normalcy bias is a cognitive bias that occurs in times of crisis, leading us to disregard any signs or warnings that we are in danger. Even when we are advised on what to do, we may downplay the possibility of something bad happening to us or disregard how disruptive a disaster might actually be. A cognitive bias is a systematic error in thinking that occurs when people are processing and interpreting information in the world around them that directs the decisions and judgments that they make. The “error” can be synthetically manufactured in multiple ways, but the current method of choice for the global elite is a process perfected by a world-famous pioneer of propaganda and mass phycology named Edward Bernays.
The whole armor of God as described in Ephesians 6 is your best defense.
The best secular counter to this problem is a steady diet of solid, irrefutable evidence. The John Birch Society was founded by titans of industry that loved America, loved liberty and were willing to put their money where their mouth was. They invested millions into the world’s largest research library of its kind and a professional research staff that allows the JBS to say with confidence that America in under deliberate attack with the ability to name the names of the enemies involved.
JBS research has uncovered obscure but key admissions of globalist intent. Examples include international banker and Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) luminary David Rockefeller who wrote in his 2002 autobiography Memoirs, “Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure–one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.” Writing in the May/June 1947 issue of Partisan Review, Arthur Schlesinger Jr., a major political powerbroker and intellectual guide to a star-studded list of leftist Presidents, wrote that the gradual, engineered destruction of the Constitution and transformation of America from a republic to “Democratic Socialism” under the control of the international elite was the then existing policy of the American Government. He also made it clear that this effort must be done with subterfuge as the American people were too unsophisticated to realize that was all for their “benefit.”
Dr. Malone, the inventor of the core mRNA technology platform, made it clear that Covid was a modern day Pearl Harbor like sneak attack. Our nation is currently at war, a point Dr. Malone made again, and again, and again. In war, good intelligence about the enemy is essential. And that is where the full value of the John Birch Society is realized, as evidenced by this statement from Admiral Thomas A. Moorer: “Throughout my naval career and as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, I have top security clearance and received many military and intelligence briefings, but I have learned much from The New American and the John Birch Society.”
Solutions Presented
Many valuable take away items of information can be considered from the conference. If you do not currently have an advance directive with specific Covid information, you need to get one and quick. “Hospitals are dangerous places, don’t allow your loved ones to go there” noted Dr. Marik as he implored the lawyers to have advanced directives prepared correctly and make them available in their communities.
Lawyers know all too well the costs of litigation and thus some key legislative recommendations were made. Chief among them was advocated by Dr. Kory who noted that a simple change in most states “Right to Try” law to include use of off label prescriptions would be a major advance. “Currently we can use legal means to prevent use of certain medical protocols, but we often lack legal authority to compel hospitals to administer a patient’s preferred method of care” noted Dr. Kory.
In discussion with many lawyers present, the need for a community-based business and professional organization that would target area opinion molders (fellow doctors and lawyers and also business leaders, clergy and others) and educate them on how to develop relationships and thus be able to raise money and fund critical local projects that are necessary for the preservation of liberty. Toward that worthy goal, the solution is to form a business and professional chapter of the John Birch Society. Founded in 1958, the JBS is the intelligence agency for the liberty movement and the leadership training academy for exceptional Americans dedicated to a pursuit of liberty and justice. The JBS has intelligence resources, support staff and training officers to assist you to build a powerful and long lasting organization in your community that can fund liberty oriented projects in your community. There are already hundreds of JBS chapters all over America, in every state with more growing daily. Ultimately we can all unite on the goal: “Less government, more responsibility – and with God’s help, a better world.”
